Product Information Product Footprint
Cut loose from the maddening crowds and search out the undone. Capilene 2 fabric balances fast-drying performance with lightweight insulation so you can go where others haven't. Made from an open-knit 4-oz polyester (54% recycled) that provides exceptional breathability, wicks perspiration, and dries in a flash, these pants are the ultimate in comfort beneath layers on chilly days. They feature an elastic waistband that's brushed for softness, and side seams that are set forward to eliminate chafe. With a gusseted crotch, functional fly and Gladiodor® natural odor control for the garment. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program.

Details

  • Capilene 2 fabric has an open knit that invites airflow and provides excellent wicking for endurance activities in warm to moderate temperatures
  • Fastest-drying of our Capilene fabrics, it insulates enough for use on chilly days and can be worn beneath other layers
  • Elastic waistband brushed for next-to-skin softness
  • Side seams set forward for better fit and freedom from chafe
  • Functional fly
  • Gusseted crotch for unimpeded mobility
  • 4-oz 100% polyester (54% recycled) with Gladiodor® natural odor control for the garment. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program
  • 155 g (5.5 oz)
  • Made in Mexico.

Material

Capilene baselayers feature a moisture-wicking polyester fabric that dries quickly. Capilene polyester is also recycled, recyclable and features Gladiodor® natural odor control.

Technology

Gladiodor natural odor control is a safe, durable, nonpolluting and effective alternative to heavy metal ions. It comprises naturally derived amino acid chains that kill odor-causing bacteria on the product. Say good-bye to the funk factor!

  • The Good:

    Capilene® 2 polyester employs 54% recycled content without sacrificing performance or comfort – and it's 100% recyclable. We've also found a natural way to control odor without reliance on metals or antimicrobials (to which bacteria develop resistance).

  • The Bad:

    To achieve the performance we need –and durability, an important attribute for low environmental impact – we still use 46% virgin polyester.

  • What We Think:

    We're happy to make an important product with 54% recycled content – and 100% recyclable as well. Next step: 100% recycled content, without loss of durability.
